I have this gun. Can confirm it's a fantastic gun. I like the plain look, and you get the feeling you've spent your money on a truly well engineered and manufactured gun rather than on something pretty. I prefer the textured trigger as it feels more tactile and positive on the trigger pulls. I switched from the orange/red bead to the yellow one as it pops more. You get about 6 different beeds - 3 different colours and 2 sizes for each. I prefer the heavier guns and I traded in a Browning GTS for this gun and got a really good deal on a nearly new gun. Couldn't be happier.

Simply fantastic gun. Got one in 32" when they first came on the market and I would never swap it out. Amazing clay gun and so adjustable. I have never shot Clay's so consistently with any other gun.

Thanks Jonny, for this (again) amazing video. I was going for the B525 Laminated, but I came home with the B725 PRO TRAP ... AND ... I don't regret it for one moment ... I simply LOVE the gun ... It’s become an extension of my arms and shoulders ... It’s comfortable … It handles well … It’s very stable …It radiates quality ... Its SUUUUPER !!!

I purchased my 725 pro sport just back on Feb It’s an incredible package all round. 👍. Buy far the best Browning out there at this time.

I've had a b725 s1 with 30 inch barrels since it came out. Tried out the protrap high rib last summer an immediatly fell in love with it. Got the protrap high rib witht 32 inch barrels this summer. Just an amazing gun, it handles so well, No muzzle jump, so little recoil. It wieghs a good 600 grams more than my old s1, but it balances so beautifully that I don't feel the extra weight other than it makes the gun feel much more planted and stable. I shoot sporting and compak sporting, and the protrap performs just awesome. Browning really has done things right with the pro series. A friend of mine swapped his F3 supersport out for a protrap highrib. The Blaser didn't feel right after shooting the Browning he said.

Browning B725 Pro Sport very very lovely Gun!

Had one, got rid of it with 8 months. It was prone to rusting (I am always very careful when cleaning), the pad wore down quickly and the matt black barrels easily scratched. Went back to MK38 trap and never looked back....

You say its plain, but its in the same mould looks wise as the blaser shotguns, matt/satin black on the metalwork, it must be the fashion these days. But the Brownings have always been lovely.

Shot one of these the other day. First time shooting clays. Nice gun, well balanced, and light. It's like an extension of your arm.

I had one in 32” brilliant gun to shoot! Really controllable

I tried one out a while back and loved it. It’s at the top of my Christmas list. I can’t afford a new one, but will be very happy with a good second hand one.

Had this gun (30") for over a year now and generally agree with review. I had convinced myself to buying a 692 but after an unscheduled visit to a Browning dealer all my hours of research went out the window. This gun feels fantastic in the hand (big palm swell and a good size fore end) and the movement is precise and steady, this is probably more down to its weight. Great tip on rounding the pad as it can sometimes get hung up on the vest when mounting. Bad point, the blacking does rub off slightly around the fore-end lever and the edges of the trigger guard. However I would not hesitate in recommending this gun.

Love it, elegant, understated and lovely.

Awesome gun!!! Simply, The best there is!!!

I recently bought a used Citori XT. So far, it’s been awesome.

I wish I could afford one!

Love my pro sport from clays on a Sunday to game in the season I can't fault it

I wish we could get this version in the U.S.. I love the way that gun looks. Picking up it’s sister gun soon. Love the channel, keep up the good work.

Thanks for the review Johnny. While not about the shotgun reviewed, I remember you, at least I think it was you, mentioning in another video about how you hold the forearm with your thumb and index finger on same side. I recently tried this, and it does feel better. Thanks for the tip. Hope you all have a great day.

Glad that I could help.

No less plain than a mx8 John ,and a few others I could mention for considerably more money!..none the less great revue again .

The only thing that spoils this gun is the sprayed on "oil" finish, I removed the original finish and refinished it with a nice oil finish. You can actually see the grain in the wood now.

Thank you for a good review,.Tried one today at the local dealer. After 35 years of hunting and shooting clays with an old s-b-s Husqvarna 310 from early 1920´s I was quite excited and curious.However, the Pro Sport fitted perfectly without any adjustments, pattern was good and ended up where I pointed the gun. Does not feel heavy despite the 3,9kg. Just have to get used to over-and-under instead of side-by-side.

I actually think you get a lot of gun for the money with the ProSport. It will serve well right of the shelf. Yes You will need to look at the Invictus and the 692 Sporting and perhaps a few others before buying, but thats more down to personal preference. Nice gun. (And well presented!)

Excellent review as always . Well done

Best clays Browning shooting gun. Genuinely enjoyable. It gives you back exactly you have paid for.

Took one for a test drive and shot my best sporting round ever with it - says alot : )

Had one and sold it... which was probably one of the worst mistakes I've made. It is a fantastic gun, an out and out clay cruncher... I am personally not 100% convinced with the standard chokes but aftermarket Trulock chokes transform it's performance to the extreme... I'm going to my local gun dealers tomorrow to purchase another one, bear in mind that I sold my old prosport to buy a Blaser F3!..

I really like the setup and features of the ProSport but wish it looked more elegant. Browning has the 725 Golden Clays that has nice engraving. Does the Golden Clays have all the features and extras that the ProSport has?

I have had 2 browning pro sports & both over a period of around 6 month started to show wear on the satin bluing finish ,,browning wouldnt cover under warrenty and wanted £600 + vat to re finish the worn areas,,,eg trigger guard,,,forend latch and sides of the action.Appart from this it,s a great gun.

Any chance you do a video of your favorite gun or guns? Could be for any reason, wether you shoot it the best, wether it just makes you smile when you pick it up, or even sentimental value? Love the videos by the way, I get the feeling I can trust what you have to say. Where as other channels like TSC seem to strike me as shifty, or more interested in selling their sponsors over giving genuine advise.

Looks amazing

Great video.. I’m a bit bias though, I shoot one and love it 👍

Have a Citori and its a hard smashing clay killer. Boom

Just bought one, think I might shoot it next, but then it would need a clean

I have the American version “Pro” Sporting and it’s a little better looking, but you get less accessories, regular 725 adjustable stock and schnabel for-end, no gun socks, no barrel weights ( rear stock weights only ) and a $150 Negrini case. The gun handles and shoots well, but it not worth $3500. If you want a Browning, get the regular 725 sporting adjustable comb, buy whatever extra chokes you like, buy a case, and still save $500. If I could do it over again I should have bought a CG Summit, Fabarm Elos N2, or Beretta 692. To be honest the Fabarm is a steal, it comes in a nicer Negrini case, has a better warranty, customer service, and shot better for me with less perceived recoil. But I listened to all of the “Old” guys that a Browning is the way to go for my first sporting clays gun. I’m going to use it for a while, but it will be just that, my first gun until I can step Up to something nicer!

Jonny what are your thoughts five years down the line (so to speak) do you still think they are worthwhile investment. ...

Like this but can’t make up my mind. Pro 725 sport or Xs ultra or 525 laminate.

Please take a good look at the new SKB 90TSS SPORTING. You get a lot for the money.

Hi there. I am "happy" owner of one those Pro Trap Brownings. Nice gun, but sadly the famous Browning realibity is gone. At first there was a problem on second shot, the gun jammed or the shot left the barrel after a while, on its own time, the trigger was pulled earlier of course. Send it back to dealer, it came back and worked fine, some fine tuning was made to the gun. I believe carvin more space for the trigger parts. The second problem was a minor, firing pin was bad, so i replaced it on my own, all is fine? Not so; now sometimes after the first shot the trigger is dead, no responce at all, flicking the safety back and forth does the trick, well on trap range its all over, or malfunction mark on the card. This symptom reguires guns fast sideways movement, which is typical on trapshooting. I opened it up, and lord behold, if You move the inertia block back and right and pull the trigger, the shifter dont move to the other sear, instead the mechanism is jammed and the trigger has no responce at all. The inertia block has too much sideways movevent and this makes problem possible. Again flick the safety and this corrects the parts positions to normal. I have have had GTI:s and XT:s, even Liege when i was a bit younger, and i have never had problems like these in Brownings, ever... It is nice gun, it is nice to shoot, trigger is fine, but i am bit annoyed to rebuild again gun which costs guite a lot. I hope that Browning is trying to get the realibility back on these otherwise fine guns.

I love a plain gun, prefer to invest in nice wood.

Hi good review I just bough one I have shot two reg shoots with it both in mid 80s but the is not very well Finnishished I had to remove the ejectors clean them and at every stand one would not work my friend also got a new one he has the same problem but worst keep up the reviews

Looks nice and very similar to my B725 black S3, get out there and do a proper test! 👌

Needed a ajustable combe

I really like this gun , I also like the pro trap . Do you think the 725 protrap. Would be equally as good for sporting clays ?

Slimmer profile of receiver for the 12 gauge. Nice design advance.

I see Browning have ditched their lovely signature tramline rib on the 725, I always thought the original rib was one of the best sighting planes on any o/u. Oh well.

Funny lots of gun shops I spoke didn’t know it was a 2 3/4 chamber they all swore it’s 3”

Hello, I wish if you would make a video about the Browning B725 Protrap high rib. Thanx

This or 690 black?

I almost got it as a cheeper alternative to a DT11(which I prefer). Going back to it again having shoot my older guns I don't like the palm swell now as it's bigger than required. I also got some resonance from the barrels on the test gun.

Well I have had this gun now for about a month, it is giving me trouble, I shoot it, it fires both barrels normally, but then you cannot open it fully, you have to close it then open it again, sometimes three or four times before it opens far enough to remove the shot cases, the frequency of this is getting worse, maybe 6 times in 35 shots, I am not terribly happy. It is going back to Browning in Portugal.

Make a review with de ProTrap flat rib. I just got one.

Hi, thanks for always ery nice reviews. I have always had a question that you partly refer to it. What is the advantage of ac12/70 gun over 12/76 for sporting? After all why leading brands do not produce 12/89 bock shotguns?

Hey there! Excellent review! Quick question.. what is your opinion between browning pro sport or beretta 692 black??

The B725S 2022 cant be far off the pro sport ?

Browning's finest clay gun? Here's the issue I have and would appreciate your thoughts on the matter please Jonny. I shoot DTL and for the past six years have owned and shot exceptionally well with my Browning Ultra XTR. It's a great gun, no doubt at all. But I have itchy fingers and am thinking of changing it. The only option I feel is suitable is the Ultra XS Pro and that's where my thinking is right now. But then you come along and say this is the best clay gun. What should I do? Of course I could keep my XTR which is still lovely and worth more than I paid for it. What say you?

Excellent review john how does this stack up against the beretta 692 Black? Not that I can afford either but I can remember from the 692 black video you said it would probably be one of the only berettas you would own

Hi John, Loved the review! How would you compare this to the Zoli Kronos?

How does the satin black finish hold up over 6 mty to a year?

you should try the browning bps ! you will be surprise !

I love it but saying that I love Browning shotguns of all types

Can you explain what the differences are in this gun as to the new 2020 B725 pro master ? I’m looking for a all rounder clay gun more sporting and Skeet than trap. But it’s getting confusing. Like the idea of adjustable comb. And also prefer 30inch than 32inch. Barrels good review.

As someone who is coming back to skeet shooting after decades of inactivity, is this shotgun “too good” or complex for an old beginner?

How much does this gun weight? Lovely gun and nice video

Maybe a touch biased that review. Plenty of people buy Browning products but... the used racks in the gun shops fill up quick once people realize there's other stuff on the market. Browning has done a great job on marketing and distribution Network.

Do the 725 shoot and handle differently to the 525’s? I’ve shot a number of 525 in different guises and not really found one I’m comfortable with I really like the look of the pro sport but the nearest gun shop to me that has it in stock is a 3 hour drive

Hi, I really like your channel! How does the Browning 725 pro sport compare to the miroku mk38 sporter?

I like them but my eyes are still are on the blaser F16 sporter for my next gun.

I got the 30” they had out the 32 and the 30 it was hard to choose but they are awesome guns 💪

Jonny, any thoughts on the pro sport vs the b725 sporter II? Held both but not shot and dimensionally feel very similar, is the pro sport worth the extra £1000? Cheers!

I just picked up a 725 pro trap myself. I'm in New York... usa.. any way you can do a table top on the 725 pro trap?

Would buy one if could get 32 inch

I'm very new to trap shooting, and my apologies. if this is a silly question. Could this gun also be used for hunting?

What do you think about the 725 sporting ? Been looking at one but the ported barrels are throwing me off it

Hi

Why internal chokes for a high pheasant gun ? just snobbery ?

The Browning 525 prestige grade 5 super sport plus is just as good and far better looking,but everybody to there own....great video thou John take care sir..

How can you go wrong?

The black finish in action it is good quality or it is fade away?

love the video, how would you compare the pro sport to the beretta 692 black??

Do you have any gun suggestions for a newcomer to shotguns the only thing I would like is it to be an ejector around £250-£300

Probably showing my naivety here.... but why only chamber for 2 3/4" ? Ok... you only need 2 3/4 for clays, but would 3 have hurt, especially as 3 would let you load up a little heavier if needed. I love Browning, I shoot one... but I wouldn't restrict myself to a short chamber. Then again, I suppose if I was a little richer I wouldn't be arsed as I'd just spend another 3.5k on a second gun 😁. Lol... just answered my own question I think 🙄. God vid as always. Oi, posh lad... you lot going to the Northern Shooting Show this May... or is that a bit 'chips and bitter' for your southern neshness?

Can the pro sport be used for trap shooting aswell?

Cannot get them in the US... We can only get the pro's with ported barrels which is a useless Mod.... The 725's eat firing pins - replacement is the norm for the guys who shoot them here in my club after 8000 rounds or so.. The norm is 13k on the low end and 17k a year for the normal club shooter here... I shoot 18k a year of 12 ga. through my Cesar Guerini with no issues and only 5500 in my 20 ga. Guerini .... It's a real shame we can't get this model here in the US I would buy one for my grand son.....

this dude's hands are filthy

From mid 2019 to mid 2022, this gun has risen 20% in price. He said 2500 quid or dollars since it is close. Not a good time to be buying a new sport shotgun.

692 or this?

Please do a review on this guns sister, the protrap high rib. It's actually a fantastic sporting gun!

This or 694? 🤑😬

the first thing this guy did was finger the trigger before breaking the action.

In the US Browning has earned a reputation for having the worst customer service in the firearms industry. Rude employees, excuses to deny warranty claims, and very long wait times for repair work. All this with growing problems with the 725 regarding stocks cracking at the head and failures of the top barrel to fire. American shooters with increasing experience have moved away from Browning to European guns. Better service and more developed.

Dudes got some filthy fingernails

Ok.....I’ve held my tongue long enough....dude, what in the hell are you doing prior to making these videos?! Wash your hands for Christ sake. All I can think about every time you review a new shot gun is how I don’t want you touching any gun, period.

I guess it's a fantastic clay smashing tool rather than anything else, it dosen't seem versatile. It's not a very pretty gun either plain and boring, the black and gold doesn't do anything for me.

A very poor quality gun from Browning with cracking stocks breaking ejectors and the black finish coming off the action . When doing these information reviews why not mention these points on all gun ?

Its all fancy and nice but basicly its just the same over under gun as always just a bit more stock angle and a lighter trigger and and and but its nothing new.......Sadly no new gun design come out that are revolutionairy cause this over and under gun i have seen about 200x now.... I wish a person like John Browing would live now and make some new guns,if u compare his guns like the pump action shotguns or the lever guns or the pistols he made or the machines guns are soo unique and diffent from eachother if u compare them,but these over and under guns...are nothing new,just darker wood diffent trigger and and and but nothing really new..

Great review. Not worth the money! These guns are machine made not hand made. They are pumped out on an assembly line like cars are today. Realistic price based on hourly wage is closer to $1000.00 then $3500.00. Do a show on which is the fairest priced sporter / field gun. The cheaper $800.00 to a $1200.00 gun? I think we get more value with cheaper guns. It will not last as long, so what buy another equivalent priced shotgun. Sick of getting ripped off. Thanks

Probably a fantastic gun, but to plain and to far from tradition, reminiscent of the old black baikal functional but no esthetics, for my preference

I'm sure it's a solid gun but the wood-to-metal fit doesn't look good on video. Perhaps it's better in the flesh. Guess one gets monoblock barrels these days even at higher price points. Don't like the gold. Otherwise.....
